Sending ZigBee Cluster Library (ZCL) Commands with the API
The ZigBee Cluster Library defines a set of attributes and commands (clusters) that can be supported in multiple
ZigBee profiles. The ZCL commands are typically required when developing a ZigBee product that will interoperate in
a public profile such as home automation or smart energy, or when communicating with ZigBee devices from other
vendors. Applications that are not designed for a public profile or for interoperability applications can skip this
section.

The following table shows some prominent clusters with their respective attributes and commands.
The ZCL defines a number of profile-wide commands that can be supported on any profile, also known as general
commands. These commands include the following.
commands. These commands include the following.
The Explicit Transmit API frame (0x11) is used to send ZCL commands to devices in the network. Sending ZCL
commands with the Explicit Transmit API frame requires some formatting of the data payload field.
commands with the Explicit Transmit API frame requires some formatting of the data payload field.
When sending a ZCL command with the API, all multiple byte values in the ZCL command (API Payload) (e.g. u16,
u32, 64-bit addresses) must be sent in little endian byte order for the command to be executed correctly on a
remote device.
u32, 64-bit addresses) must be sent in little endian byte order for the command to be executed correctly on a
remote device.
Note: When sending ZCL commands, the AO command should be set to 1 to enable the explicit receive API frame.
This will provide indication of the source 64- and 16-bit addresses, cluster ID, profile ID, and endpoint information
for each received packet. This information is required to properly decode received data.
